There was a downloadable excek file. I will post it over on our yahoo groups.
They had “selection of comments” related to their main question, which I’m posting below. It is hard to read because it is prose but in excel, so the comments are run-ons etc. I’m posting it exactly as it appears in the spreadsheet.
You can see that they’re all over the board.
What statement do you agree with?
The worst of the housing bust is behind us. 65%
The worst of the housing bust is yet to come. 35%
Selection of comments:
Without a spike in inflation or job loss housing will soon stabilize
Housing construction to fall slower. Prices to fall faster.
In terms of sales/construction, not prices
Housing activity will decline further but at a slower pace
Negative impact on consumer spending still ahead.
There is no housing “bust,” just a slowdown in sales
